Fr. Chris Alar explains Mary's role in the history of America and her being made patroness of the United States under the title of the Immaculate Conception. Also discussed is the only approved Marian apparition in the U.S. at Champion, WI and the significance of the date July 2. Also, has the Church approved Our Lady of America and George Washington's apparition of Mary?

What does it mean to be the Vicar of Christ? What does Church teaching that the Pope is infallible really mean? It isn't what you think. Join Fr. Chris Alar as he explains what the Church really teaches about the papacy, the Ordinary Magisterium, the Extraordinary Magisterium, Apostolic Succession, Ex Cathedra, etc. and if the Pope can make an error or not.

Today, December 10th, the Church celebrates the optional memorial of Our Lady of Loreto, commemorating the miraculous Holy House that journeyed from Nazareth to Loreto, Italy. As Pope Francis officially inscribed it into the General Roman Calendar in 2019, this feast reminds us of the profound mystery of the Incarnation and the sanctity of the Holy Family. Tradition tells us that angels transported Mary’s childhood home to protect it during the Crusades.
